Why no "turn-of-the-century Canadian West"???? Just a lack of Hollywood appreciation?

It MUST have been quite similar.

Hmmmmmmmm.....I jes' don't think so......no tumbleweeds....no swingin' half doors into the saloon.....And I just cannot picture that badwy, rifle-slinging Mae West-type madame behind the bar as a Canuck...... :lol:

OH!!!!!!!

Just saw that Richard's on the forum!!

Popped back in HERE expecting to see our Founder's name .. .but no. :(

Not yet anyway .... .

Oh . . . OK . . . no pressure . . . I'll get right on it . . . after I have another round of ice cream . . . you don't expect my son to have to eat all those gallons of ice cream by himself, do you??

Janet....looks like you may be eBaying some pants, as well...... :lol:

Sarah, sounds like you and Tom need a nonsmoking pact . . . I said PACT not PACK!!!!!

Quitting is so difficult.....but the best thing ya can do for yourself. WE'LL BE HERE FOR YOU!!!! :):)

Oh and cigarettes . . . do they still make those candy ones? . . . Probably not . . . uber politically incorrect . . .

HOLY POOPY COW us right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't be silly because my sodium has fallen to dangerously low levels (do you think tequila shots with Lyme lime and salt would help?

Holy flaming panic attack, Batman!!!!!!!!

!

They also put me on 2 weeks of doxycycline. Kind of seemed to be a last ditch effort before switching to the big guns (i.e. the really expensive abx.) Neither of them seemed to think the doxy would do much good, but want to try it just in case.

I may have trouble bringing the phunny for a while.

I'm with you girlfriend!!!!!

Sarah, sounds like you and Tom need a nonsmoking pact . . . I said PACT not PACK!!!!!

:lol: (me too she says in mouse voice)

Sarah . . . enjoy life chocolate chips and kinni-toos . . . for your choc fix.

GAHHHHHHH :lol :lol: I saw that you already found them online, but I forgot I was going to bring up this new retro candy store that opened in Willow Glen!!!

:lol: it was amazing to see all these old types of candy everywhere I turned!!

3 or 4 types of candy cigs.

Remember the Bun? Was like a delicious little cowpie :o:lol:

And those colored candy dots, 3 wide, on a strip of paper. And Chuckles! Charleston Chew! OMG the list was endless!

I use Nestle's cocoa--one of my favorite chocolate fixes is Nestle's Cocoa, sugar in the raw and Vanilla Almond milk in a mug, microwaved 2 minutes. Yum :P

Sounds yummy & and I can't have ANY of the ingredients!! :angry:

Maybe the vanilla part IS ok now. I was so strict w/ the anti-candida diet that the mention on a few sites of the vanilla extract being bad due to the process & the alcohol, I've never tested it.

Alcohol doesn't seem to be a problem these days. :wacko: :phaerieface: :lol:

HOLY POOPY COW us right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't be silly because my sodium has fallen to dangerously low levels (do you think tequila shots with Lyme lime and salt would help?

Only one way to know fer sher darlin'!!!! :D;):lol:

:lol: I was actually disappointed to see that some of them at that store WERE the gum kind. I HIGHLY preferred the hard candy ones & thought gum cigs were stupid :P :P

I think I"ll invite the phaerie in tonight as I finish painting the dining room. I have NEVER seen even a HINT of her, the three or four times I"ve sampled. Perhaps I should be drinking A LOT more during consumption...... :blink::lol:

Methinks sampled is the key word.

You must COMMIT to inviting the Phaerie in. Plan on 3 drinks or whatEVER it TAKES!!!!! :blink::wacko::rolleyes:

:lol:

Four more days until Vegas!!!!!!!!!!! B)

GadZOOKS I had no idea Vegas was that soon!!!!!

(Book an Elvis Chapel didja? :blink::lol: )

I must admit it seems awfully peculiar that a full-grown native Californian is a Vegas Virgin.

FOUR days???? You head there on Sunday?

I don't remember the gum cigs . . . only the hard candy ones . . . there were gum cigars . . . perhaps because tom and susie are sooooo much older than I.

How about Skybar? :D I loved that one.

Yes! The gum cigars--the ones I remember came in pastel colors--blue, pink and yellow. Hey, now that I think about it, maybe it was so new fathers could give them out to everybody. Duh! :huh:

I can be a little slow on the uptake :lol:

Sarah, how much do you smoke? Y'know, if it's a pack a day, I think this should be your primary concern........and WE'RE HERE FOR YA!!!!!!

Bev.....I am certain that absinthe is quite high in sodium..... :)

I think I"ll invite the phaerie in tonight as I finish painting the dining room. I have NEVER seen even a HINT of her, the three or four times I"ve sampled. Perhpas I should be drinking A LOT more during consumption......

Absolutely.....you need to be consuming 3-4 2 oz. glasses in one sitting...or lying...by a toilet... :rolleyes::lol:

OMG - I have these pants on and they're REALLY LOOSE today!!!!!!!! :rolleyes: I am pleased......

Susie!!! You will be eBaying pants, as well.....for a much better reason, I reckon....

As a lifetime type one, I'm sad to say I have none of these happy, decadent childhood memories....let's see, now....I have vivid memories of......

Trident.....and...

Tab...and....

Fresca. :(:rolleyes:

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works
    • trents
      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped. 
    • Samanthaeileen1
      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
